Wolverhampton 2015


Recommended Posts

If Belle Vue protect Steve Worrall and Wolves land Lewis Blackbird as they get second pick behind Leicester, would they need to protect Jacobs as they could be one of the first to pick in the second draw and they could then possibly get to pick Paul Starke.

Blackbird should be lower rated than Auty, Newman, Kerr, Garrity and Worrall and that should give them one from Starke, Jacobs, Sarjeant or Greaves who look the strongest in the second pot.

Dream on - Blackbird was the highest rated FTR from last season!

If they get blackbird they're have second to last pick after whoever has Auty if its done based on order of first pick. Blackbird had the 4th highest average of all riders in the EL last season! Kerr 10th, Newman 18th, Garrity 19th and Worrall 24th

Dont even joke about it!

I would hate to have a season of not going often if that was to happen. :mad:

 

True fan then!!

 

Yes, but not sure why not being a fan of one particular rider makes me any less so.

 

 

True fan then!!

Why? Because he had some integrity and won't change his views on a rider just because he signs for his club?

 

:t:

Would they get ranked by how they scored in the Elite League or would it go off how they also did in the Premier League ?

 

Worrall, Kerr and Auty averaged over 7 in the PL while Newman, Wright and Garrity averaged more than Blackbird. Would be nice to know the ranking list in advance of the draw as it should determine who goes where in the second b b.

 

The thing is that with possibly four of the ten possibly protected, it would be four riders being picked out of the six available left to pick from.

 

 

Ii have gone through each team trying to get them all close to 34 points. The only way I managed to get all 8 close to the limit was to include Andreas Jonsson, Tai Woffinden, Peter Kildemand, Magic Janowski, Shamek Pawlicki, Niels K Iversen and Mikkel Beach. All of which are uncertain about riding here in 2015.

Spell check on this tablet I am using.

 

 

It seems Leicester have issues with Lewis from the previous time he rode for them so Lewis Blackbird looks a good bet to be at Monmore.

 

Just got to find a way of getting Paul Starke too.

Basic summary from Talk-in at Chillington tonight:

 

Freddie Lindgren confirmed starter for 2015 to HUGE approval.

 

Tai Woffinden has had talk, but CVS reckons 60/40 in favour of him missing Britain next season. PA advised Tai is in the middle of buying a new house at the moment, so organising that is his main concern at the moment.

 

Ty Proctor unlikely to be back, but things may change.

 

Ashley Morris should be fit for January, but CVS said neither him nor Joe Jacobs are likely to feature in 2015.

 

CVS felt Ricky Wells had a big kick up the backside when dropped, as he was a different rider when he came back as a guest later in season. Not sure if he will be back, as he is likely to have to choose EL or PL.

 

Oliver Berntzon will NOT be in Wolves team in 2015.

 

Adam Skornicki approached, but now has a management role in at Leszno, so probably won't feature unless we have injuries mid-season.

 

PK is a maybe.

 

Grading

 

CVS and PA keen on rider grading system as opposed to averages, but BSPA feel there are not enough riders to have one at the moment. Certainly on the cards in the future.

 

PA keen to see an end to riders going back to the pits before a restart.

 

CVS suggested he would like to see a secondary referee at meetings (like a third umpire in cricket).

 

CVS rubbished suggestion of stock cars at Monmore Green.

 

If anyone else can add other things are missed, then feel free.

Main talk was about the FTR and riders we wont be signing lol. But at least we can move foward now with Freddie & Jacob.

 

Tai i think will only have two or three weeks to decide.

 

Fixtures are all sorted apparently but they cant be annouced until the swedish league annouces theres.
